I have seen a lot of restaurants coming and going over the years in the San Bruno neighborhood, with many Asian restaurants changing hands or simply disappeared. Kobe Sake has been at the current location for over 8 years and still proudly standing 7 nights a week with 5 business days lunches, they must be doing something right. The general atmosphere is warm and friendly at the sushi bar, making this restaurant one of my "visit once every week" dining experience. The service is excellent, but the service could become slow as the restaurant gets jam packed (usually late Friday and Saturday, so get there early). As for the sushi, this is one of the very few honest restaurants that you could ask "What is good today" without getting any outlet items, and "SO GOOD!" is exactly how I would describe the quality of their sushi. If you are by chance visiting this restaurant during the weekdays, you can really get to know the people in this restaurant well, and personally as a food lover, I prefer just that. I know there is this one guy always getting take-out order around the same time (6 PM) nearly everyday when I dine at Kobe Sake, such a "commitment" speak louder than words.

Take it from a nisei who grew up summering in Japan. I had it once, and the sushi was mostly terrible. The hamachi wasn't fresh, the ebi was tough and overcooked, and we had some kind of a roll that was ugly,...

Carla's Take:3 1/2 stars. Not bad but not the best. This is a pretty small hole in the wall sushi place. The salmon was quite fresh. I ordered the sisters city roll and the guy told me it was just...

I use to like this place, but I think it is going down hill. The avocado the other day was not fresh. Plus, I always seem to have bad luck with my dinner guests when we come here. Usually, someone...

Sushi is very good. Plan on dinner taking 2-3 hours as the service is extremely slow. I suggest calling in and ordering to go. Plan on picking up to go orders at least 30 mintues later than they tell you and...

Holy Crap! This has to be some of the best sushi I've had anywhere in the Bay Area. It's a pretty simple looking place from the outside, but don't let that dissuade you. Everything is quality....

I can not even begin to describe how bad the service was. On top of that, the food wasn't even good. All those good review must have been from how things were in the past. What a shame.

I used to be a big fan of this place. Honestly, not because of the sushi, but because the owner would give us free sake and beer and free hamachi kama (come on, who doesn't like free stuff?) Yet,...

Two words: LOBSTER ROLL. Nothing else on the menu is worth ordering in my opinion. The cuts of sashimi are really large and the selection is nice, but overall I have been underwhelmed.
